Yeah. About 100 times.

It's not comedy. It's him being mad about George Floyd.

He does have one interesting thing to stay: "Why are comedians the ones people trust to be honest? Why are you turning to me rather than people in authority? Because you know everyone else is lying to you."

It's clearly him being mad about more than just that.

I just skipped through it. I love Chappelle but that just seemed more like an angry rant than a comedy show.

Just watched it and it's not a traditional Chappelle set.

He's pretty pissed throughout the whole thing and gets pretty emotional at times. It's definitely not gonna be highly praised by the posters here because he comes down on the side of protesters and slams conservative views. But, being Dave is an EEO shite talker, he blasts Don Lemon pretty good too.

Also, it says at the beginning it was his first time on stage in 87 days, so it's not a very polished set. Like I said, not traditional Dave who kills with every joke. He is basically venting about the Floyd situation and giving his view on it. It is still good though.

One of his last ones spent a good amount of time bashing Trump since his one about Jussie came off as anything other than radical left. Not sure you'll want to watch the next one.

ETA: I'm not saying don't watch it, just you seem like you may not like it He's still hilarious.

He’s been trending that way. His Netflix specials have had a lot more straight up political commentary than his previous specials.

Chapelle is one of the most level headed, honest comics out there. He’s also fricking hysterical

We all should be mad about what happened to Floyd. What we shouldn’t be doing is fricking rioting and looting.

Dave Chappelle has always found a way to dig right into it. I have no doubt that he leans left politically, but I don't care. And he doesn't push it.

Honesty has always been a hallmark of his shows. And he's dead on here.

That was funny, but his newer stuff seems to abandon the humor part of it. He’s just getting up there and talking. It has the feeling of someone on a lecture circuit instead of a comedy special.
